Ab-Soul to Headline Official Village Voice 4Knots Music Festival After Party

On Saturday, July 12 smart/sexy/cool people from all over will gather at South Street Seaport for our (free, all ages) fourth annual 4Knots Music Festival, which this year will include sets by incredible acts like Dinosaur Jr., Speedy Ortiz, Those Darlins, Radkey + more. Afterward, they (and you) would be wise to head over to Webster Hall for the Official 4Knots After Party, which we're happy to announce will be headlined by ... Ab-Soul. [AIR HORN]

Ab-Soul is, of course, a superb California-based rapper whose solo output and work with Black Hippy and Top Dawg Entertainment (TDE) --Kendrick Lamar, Schoolboy Q, Jay Rock --has made him one of the most dynamic artists in hip-hop over the last couple years. His new album, These Days, will be out in June, and the first track off it, "Stigmata," released last week, features Action Bronson and Asaad. (It's a stone-cold stunner.)

Tickets for the After Party are just $30 , and we'll be adding some "Special Guests" to the bill in the coming days. Tickets for the show will go on sale starting June 3 at noon.and pre-sale starts tomorrow, May 28th, at noon here using the pre-sale code 4KNOTSED. The show will be 19+ with doors at 8:00PM.
